[Geomoose-users] Displaying each layer from a mapfile in a separate layer

[Robert R. Raiz]

Hello all,

@Eli Adam: yes, that is the intended way. It works, I added each layer in
the map-source with the "<layer name" param. Then,  all those again in the
the catalog section, with <layer src. I did that from the first attempt and
the result is ok, but I do not wish to do this manual process for each map
file.

The reason for my post was to learn if there is a more straightforward way
(automatically).

Because I have many map files with a lot of layers and I always need all of
them displayed to choose the best layout. I guess a little script can read
the map file and build that list for me, using a few variables.

I am new to geomoose..  I've been using Chameleon for a long time and
clearly its time is long due.

I really appreciate the support, the great documentation out there and
surely I will get back to the mailing list with more questions as I go
forward with the migration.

Kind regards,
